Packers' Love out vs. Ravens with concussion
Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love won't play in Saturday night's game against the Baltimore Ravens because of a concussion, the team announced Friday.
Backup Malik Willis is expected to start for Green Bay, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Love was concussed during the Packers' Week 16 loss to the Chicago Bears after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit while being sacked in the second quarter. Willis finished that game.
Saturday's Packers-Ravens showdown at Lambeau Field has become a battle of the backups. Baltimore, which is fighting for its playoff life, is expected to start Tyler Huntley with Lamar Jackson doubtful because of a back injury.
The Packers clinched a playoff spot Thursday thanks to the Detroit Lions' loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
